General MacArthur lost which war? here's the history of his involvement in Japan. https://history.state.gov/milestones/1945-1952/japan-reconstruction Here's why he was fired by Truman. http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/truman-relieves-macarthur-of-duties-in-korea
In fact that 'old man' was murdering his own citizens, had 'rape rooms', invaded his neighbors, had a 10 year war with Iran, and committed genocide against the Kurds. In 2011 Iraq was 'sovereign and stable' until Barack Obama pulled the troops in December of that year. If you're referring to Obama as a 'troublemaker' we might agree. He certainly created a ton of trouble in the Middle East.
I don't believe things like "rape rooms" that sounds like a pure lie propaganda to justify invasion. And every country has criminals. Some countries choose to execute criminals for social order. That's not murdering its own citizens. If you get rid of the leadership of a country, that social order, which probably is achieved through various conflicts and blood spills, breaks up, and the country becomes a mess again, and again there are going to be conflicts and blood spills to find proper leadership and social order. Getting rid of leadership is like destroying a nation. As this site shows https://www.iraqbodycount.org/ there are over 200,000 civilians killed from violent death since US invasion of Iraq 2003. What's the point of invasion and stationing troops in messed up country without its leader and hostile resistence when you eventually need to pull out the troops to home?? I manytimes think the leaders of US tend to think of its military as some kind of "expendable". They always think of it as some kind of cost and expense. There are no human beings there.
dick Cheney and Rumsfeld said the Iraq war would be over in "weeks, not months." And that the war would "be a cakewalk." And there's still an echo that can be heard about "being greeted as liberators." Fifteen years later we're still stuck fighting in that miserable shyte-hole. And the cost of the wars in the middle east is several trillion at this point, and still rising, daily. NK has to be dealt with, but there's no guarantee they'll fall down with the first punch. And how many more wars can the U.S. afford to wage over a long period of time (and simultaneously)? And finally there is another crucial question: does trump have the brains and the temperment to make good decisions in areas he has absolutely no experience in, and probably, little knowledge about (foreign policy, starting and waging wars, etc). We have some good military people at the top. But I'm not a trump fan. I think he's unstable, a flip-flopper, and possibly a psychopath. I wouldn't trust trump to manage a dog fight. In this case, I hope I'm wrong because, if he makes a mistake it could have huge negative consequences. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/educate/war28-article.htm
Agree. North Koreans have been brainwashed into unquestioning terror of the US. They might fight to the last man.
You know what? Things you guys talks about North Korea is like watching these zombies talking with each other with some kind of false information that was inserted into the brain. You guys have no idea of North Korea, and its people, and its leadership. North Koreans are not like you guys. They don't nuke or invade other countries for their benefits. You guys are just trying to kill and massacre bunch of good people and innocent children. That's all. North Korea is the best Korea. I personally believe North Korea is the most advanced, well led nation in entire Korean history. That's it for today. I gotta sleep. bu bye. happy war game.
Where is the north korean politics forum where I can go read and post on? Any social network where I could question citizens on politics?
Now I understand a previous post of yours where you state the US should have a congress full of Bernie Sanders'.
Don't underestimate your enemy. Remember that Chinese diesel sub that popped up in the middle of a US battle group on exercise, undetected?
Like you said, NK's "military" response would be to target schools and residential areas to strike terror in the hearts of South Korea's citizens, whereas our military efforts would be focused on taking out key elements of NK's defenses and dismantling their military in short order. THAT alone, is why we will kick their asses.
And the Chinese will do what while you bomb the Chinese mainland ? China is America's biggest banker and the US owes China over a trillion dollars.
They'll become Chinese the instant they are aggressively attacked. You think that the South Koreans will instantly become Americans ?
They won't become the Chinese. Moreover.....what will the N Koreans do, if the Chinese wants some of that N Korean ass? Why would the S. Koreans become Americans? Just how would that take place?
Regardless of how you apparently feel, money isn't everything. We've given the Chinese long enough to fix NK, so now that it looks as though we may be about to take care of NK ourselves, I expect the Chinese to sit on their hands and watch. I get the feeling that if China wants war, Trump will give it to them.
I suspect DPRK's military capabilities are exaggerated, I remember this was what critics said of Iraq too. The North Koreans are advancing their missile technology and this is worrisome in the long term because nothing else is changing. With sanctions almost at the maximum and that way for devades, despite moderate Chinese cooperation, Kim holds steady with increasing efforts on those missiles despite the sanctions while China is unwilling to push any harder. Within a year or two Kim will demonstrate the capability to attack the US, better to stop him before its too late.
would you volunteer for WWIII, better yet you probably will get drafted anyway? remember back in Korean war in 50s, china use its shitty army to get a stalemate with coalition force, over 50,000 US solider die, 100,000 coalition force, and millions Korean on both side. heck ill bet Russia will join this time too, and these days chinas military is much more advance then back in 50s. more likely china will invade N.korea, kind like WWII german, and separate the Korean so they can have a buffer zooe.
